Hepatitis C Support Group

Hepatitis C is a blood-borne viral disease which can cause liver inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver cancer. The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is spread by blood-to-blood contact with an infected person's blood. Many people with HCV infection have no symptoms and are unaware of the need to seek treatment. Hepatitis C infects an estimated 150-200 million people worldwide.

No wonder I'm getting stupid, can't remember yesterday, and get things mixed up. If I keep messing up at work, I won't be able to do my job.

Wes I've come to acceptance. Everytime I fantasize abou5t going back 5to wok, I remember how mixed up I can get, how I read things backasswards, never mind the physical fatigue. I can't afford to make transcribing mistakes in my job. Better to end on a high note than the alternative. I truly cannot perform the tasks required anymore.

Wes that site may be a dubious source of info, LOL. Headlines of every article use words like "seemingly, probably, & supposedly".
